      just fair warning that build is a tad janky and wont work as well as the one provided with retropie.

      If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

      Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

          @herb_fargus - I wish I could get the Retropie install to work - but every time I run it, I get the same exact errors, can't find daphne.bin in the Retropie-Setup/tmp area.. :(

              It would be useful to see the log to see why the RetroPie daphne build failed - please can you upload it somewhere (eg pastebin.com). logs are stored in ~/RetroPie-Setup/logs/

                That's great you got it working, it looks killer with Attract Mode front end. I have it and Space Ace working nicely now.

                  @BuZz Sorry about that BuZz - I would have uploaded it sooner, but weekends are usually pretty busy around here :D

                    are you running a wheezy based retropie image ? Wheezy is now unsupported. What is the output of cc --version ? The C compiler is too old I think hence I think you must be on Raspbian Wheezy.

                      @BuZz - I thought I got the image directly from the Retropie site, but now I don't remember.

                      The response I get is:
                      cc (Raspbian 4.7.3-11+rpi1) 4.7.3

                      Is that the image you are referring to? Do I have the wrong image? I don't mind wiping it all out and starting over if I have to. I'd rather have a good version that's working than not :)

                        and the output of cat /etc/debian_version ? Looks like you have an old image - you will need to start from a new Jessie image. Perhaps you downloaded the image before we switched over to Jessie.

                          if you update the retropie-setup script, it should warn you if using the unsupported Raspbian version.

                            @BuZz - That comes back as 8.0

                              I run the script - says that it's fetched the latest version and then flashes so fast and comes back to the menu system.

                                ok that's correct - so look like you somehow have your default gcc set to 4.7 then - instead of 4.9

                                best bet would just be to remove gcc-4.7 for now (and make sure gcc-4.9 is installed)

                                  @BuZz I'm a complete noob when it comes to this stuff. Do I need to format the sdcard and start from scratch or is there a simple way to change it?

                                  Thanks for all your input btw! greatly appreciated!

                                    from terminal - sudo apt-get remove gcc-4.7

                                    but starting from a new image is an option if that doesn't solve it.

                                      without removing gcc-4.7 - this may sort it too

                                      sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/gcc-4.9 /usr/bin/gcc

                                          I would love to get this ROM working too. What version of the ROM did you get to work. I am on Daphine Lairs fans and there are so many different ROM versions available. Just not sure which one to choose.

                                            This IMO is realy nice, uses the full data from the original game the way it should have been.
